[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2275532, member: 105681"] 25-06 with a 1:7" 26 inch barrel. I mean I'm shooting mine out to 600 yds with the 115 Berger with 10 twist with great success. And realistically if you're shooting at big game animals past that distance you're probably not using the right tool for the job here. That's 6.5 PRC, 6.8 Western, 7mm or 30 caliber time. My handloads have the 115 Berger cruising at 3230 fps. It gets out to 500 yds in a hurry and mine is only a 6 MOA come up at that distance. I think I'm over 1950 fps at 700 and 1000 ft/lbs energy. That's good enough for killin any mule deer and smaller deer in my experience. Imagine how well it would do with 131 Blackjack. I can only dream for now. Tough decision for you. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
